Chapter II

 

Inuyasha sat bolt right up in his bed. Sweat running in rivulets down his face. Not even able to think over the loud hammer of his heart in his chest. Looking around he realized with relief that he was still in his scantly furnished apartment.

 

It had all been a dream. A dream that he had been plagued with for weeks now. And every time after one of the horrendous dreams he would rush to Kaede and demand her to make a new spell to conceal himself with. If somehow the girl found out about him it would be six feet under before he even had the time to blink. And he would rather be shit on by the birds than eaten by the worms.

 

Reluctantly pulling the cover off of himself to be chilled to the bone by the winter air that had seeped through the walls, Inuyasha planted his feet on the rather ice cube like tile floor and make his way to the kitchen. When he walked through the entrance of the kitchen he was hit with a flashback of the dream. In real life when he watched Kagome she was in her house but every time in the dream she had been in his kitchen. It baffled him to no end. Why would he dream her in his apartment?

 

Looking over at the clock that hung above the sink Inuyasha let out a loud sigh. Two more hours and it would be time to go back to work. Joy. Back to being a stalker. Why he had ever chosen the career of being an under cover operative he had no clue. Guess because it was in the family. Spying on people to tell the Big Man what he had found. What a respectable job. But sometimes it was fun. Like the job he was on at that moment. The young woman he was watching was quite the mysterious one. Usually a job would take around three months to gather all the information it would take for the Big Man to fulfill his intentions. But this time the job was taking up a considerable larger amount of time than usual. The young woman, Kagome, was quite sneaky. Him and his partners in this job were having trouble keeping up with her and the two others that were in on the little secret that they were so well hiding. One minute they would be there and the next gone. He just couldn't understand it. Where did they go? How did they get past his two best friends and him? They had each been assigned to one girl hoping that would obliterate any chances of the aggravating disappearance of one or all of them for a large amount of time, but to no avail. Kouga and Miroku were stumped also. No matter what they tried they couldn't keep up with the three sly women.

 

 

Kagome peered over the mountain of blankets at the digital alarm clock that sat on the nightstand beside her bed. Already 3:00a.m. This was starting to get annoying. She had been having problems getting to sleep before 3:00a.m for a while now. It had to be from all the stress that “work” was putting on her. Her job was not your usual every day job. No, her job consisted of murder, fraud, and theft. She had always wanted a daring life, but she never suspected it would ever become this out of hand. She had quite literally killed to obtain her current position of head of an elite group of spies. Dethroning Kikyo, the former head of the elite group was fairly easy. She had been too far up her own ass to realize that there had been plotting in the ranks to dispose of her for a while. When she had finally realized something was going on Kagome had already beheaded her. It was rather sad to thing that one of the most feared people in Japan had been so easily cut down. Well that was all in the past now and it was the beginning of a new day.

 

Kagome slipped out from under the covers and lazily shuffled over to the closet. After grabbing a crisp business suit she slipped into the bathroom connecting to her room and took a long, refreshing, hot shower. Stepping out of the bathroom she glanced at the clock. 4:30a.m! The shower was a little too long. She had thirty minutes to make a forty-five minute journey to work. SHIT!
